    Was it like runners781 or some series of numbers like that? I swear that troll is still posting under a different name. XD

    I dunno about the 9060s, but I grabbed those Sydney Rebel v4s, digging that PS1-graphics blocky *** midsole and like the colorway. Looking forward to getting them in hand.

    Searching for NB1 on the new balance site no longer directs you to the NB1 page saying they're temporarily suspended... Probably the official death of NB1s since there has been no communication in years about it anyways. :smh:

    Man been waiting for a steal on that 998 sepia/blue pair but it's just my luck that there's no 7.5 available on TS.

    I've had the opposite experience, the extra foam on the SC trainer was just the right balance for saving my feet on long runs while not feeling too clunky/heavy for tempo runs. I've got about 300 miles on them and they've held up pretty fantastically, legit my favorite shoes I've ever bought to...

    Isn't that basically identical to the "esruc/curse" pair they released a few years ago, just on a 998 instead of a 997S? Only difference I can notice is the white.

    Yeah, pre-covid it was always available, just changed which models could be customized... It's just been gone since covid and hasn't come back yet. I was worried they'd just cancel the program entirely but JPS with some inside knowledge (I'm guessing) is renewing my hope for the program to return.

    Gorgeous! But that just saved me a purchase cause they're too hairy for my tastes, was on the fence between that and the 998 Core and I think I'll go for the core! Unless release info comes soon for those cream V6s, then I'll have to decide between those two before I give in and buy both anyways.

    Absolutely gorgeous! One of the best 1500 colorways, so damn clean! I'm always terrified of wearing them because they're so bright white. Might have to try reshaping my pair.

    The More V4 wasn't bad for me, I like it, but it doesn't have the pop that the supercomp trainer has. Since it lacks the carbon plate it'd be more comfortable for casual wear, I didn't get a sinking feel with it however, just not as fun to run in. In my opinion as long as it fits in your...

    They're by far my favorite running shoe I've ever worn. They have a really propulsive feel to them, definitely best use would be when you're purposefully moving, whether running or jogging. Walking would be fine too I imagine but I don't think I'd wear them for casual use, with the carbon...

    Picked those up plus the classic Rainiers for $105, ~$240 total! Great find! And that's after finding the 577 English Tenders in orange in my size, expensive end to my month!

    Those are all right for the 237, not a fan of the model really. The earlier Todd Snyder collabs with the Made in US models like the 997 and 998 were fantastic, and the 990v3 and 992 stuff were great too. Wish we'd see more stuff like that, the 997TS2 is one the best 997 colorways and the...

    Man I saw those Nb1's while I was catching up on the thread and got excited thinking it was back finally. They either need to officially announce they're pulling the plug or start actually doing something again. |l

    I have never received a pre-order from Saks. Every single time I tried (Most recently the 992 with the elephant print) they'd sit for months before being randomly canceled.
